CFP readership should note that one quick way to slow down these initiatives is to insist that their Congressional representatives cut-off federal funding to the Great Lakes States to implement these agreements, laws, regulations and initiative
The Europeanization of the Great Lakes States' Wetlands Laws & Regulations
For more than 15 years, in addition to practicing law, I have been engaged in Washington, D.C. and around the nation, in public international, federal and state policy practice. My public policy practice has focused, in part, on how the European Union, formed upon the execution of the 1992 Maastrict Treaty by the countries of Europe, has, at the insistence of European regional industries, exported around the world Europe's relatively higher cost of sustainable development/Agenda 21-modeled environmental regulation. While European governments' stated purpose for exporting such rules was to "save the planet" from the capitalist system which allegedly "bore humanity's greed and avarice", it's other self-professed purpose was to serve as "good" disguised trade protectionism capable of "leveling the global economic playing field" for Europe's economically besieged industries.
